vast pier, and there is to be so
MUCH IRON WORK,
and the bridge will be so high, that both
are required to be an effectual brace
and foundation. Work is progressing
clear inland to the bluff, and the bank is
thoroughly lined with the material,
which is all on hand, for the substruc-
ture. Winter will not completely check
the work. The cost of this part of the
work will be 1910, as stated i'll the con-
tract.
The matter of the injunction placed
On the superstructure still rests with
Judge Wilkin. The city comptroller
states that the council, acting under the
suggestion of Mayor Smith, will I'M
doubtedly re-advertise for bids for the
work. This will take the matter out of
court. but will not prevent future in
functions, for the court can grant one to
any citizen who makes a case and fur
nisheS the bond. OF course this in no
wise affects the SubStructure, as they
are separate jobs. Thus it rests. If the
council re-advertiSeS and lets the con-
tract with ten votes, the work will go on
with no further information.

Work on the substructure of the up-

could be expected. Two piers, one at

first layer Of stone for the third was laid
yesterday. This pier will be No %.
To the uninitiated description of
how these piers are laid may prove in
teresting. First a large pit is built in
the water, which looks like a huge
sunken box. The cracks between the
planks are carefully caulked with
oakum, like the seams of steamer or
river craft. to prevent leakage, and a
few feet above is erected false side to
counteract the effect of the current and
pressure on the sides of the pit. The
sides and ends are firmly braced with
heavy timbers. The water is pumped
out and the pit is ready for business.
Huge piles are driven in the bed of the
river, and when leveled off board plat
form is built upon them. Then the
stone is laid and cemented, being shaped
before they are lowered in the pit, Just
as the stone foundation of a building
IS laid. As much attention is given to
cementing these stones on the first
layer as on any above the sur
face of the water, each crack

On a platform built at the side of the pit
are two engines constantly at work
pumping out the water. The stone is
brought to the pit on small cars, tenn

TO SEE OUR IMPROVEMENTS.
A Party of Toronto Officials In
spectinS the SANITY City.

Mayor w. H. Rowland, of Toronto,
City Councilman John Shaw and Mr..
AYern p ardOe. of the Toronto Globe,
were among the arrivals at the Ryan
yesterday, on tour of inspection of
local improvements with view to util-
iZing the knowledge thus obtained at
home.
I'VE were very forcibly and favorably
impressed" said Mayor Rowland, with
the character of the work done in st.
Paul, and it looked to us as though the
citizens had been honestly dealt with,
and had received full value for the
money they had expended in improving
this picturesque city. If we are able to
accomplish anything like the same re-
suits at Toronto, we shall feel amply
repaid for the time and trouble that we
have devoted to this question, and which
has involved considerable travelling on
our part. There was deputatiOn of US
at Chicago, where we divided into two
parties, one party going East as far as
Pittsburg, and another striking
West for the Twin Cities,
of which we had heard so much.
Tomorrow we will devote our attention
to Minneapolis, returning thence to
Chicago and home via Duluth. We
drove all over St. Paul to-day with gen.
tlemen thoroughly conversant with the
subject upon which we were seeking in
formation, and as far as am concerned,
l consider st. Paul the best arranged
and improved city that have yet Wis
tied. Toronto is a city about the same
size as st. Paul q am told your popu-
lation is upwards of 100000, but not so
picturesquely situated nor with so many
natural advantages, but we hope to
make it more attractive when our
scheme for local improvement is accom-
pliShed. The assessment now levied
mills, but we are going to reduce these
figures to 10 mills on the dollar before we
get through.

They Do Not Want a State inspect
or Located at Washburn.
The board of railroad commissioners
were in session yesterday afternoon on
the recent trouble with Duluth, regard
ing the inspection of grain at Wash
burn, Wis. On October 9, f. H. Peavey d
Co.. owners of an elevator at Washburn,
made application to the board to have
an inspector and weigher sent from Du-
luth to WaShburn to inspect and WeIgn
out grain under Duluth rules. Mr..
Peavey stated that the grain had all
been inspected at st. Paul and Minnie
apoliS by the duly authorized state in
spectOr. and kept in separate bins at
Washburn. The commission decided to
give the inspection called for, stating
upon the backs of the certificates that
tile house was located at Washburn.
Wis, but that the grain was inspected
out under Duluth rules.
The board of trade of Duluth sent
out very emphatic telegram against
the work being done, and appointment
was made by telegram for p. m, yes
terday, when the Duluth board of trade
would be given hearing. The Duluth
board appointed H. s. Thompson, A. X.
Shepherd and L. S. Diget a committee
to represent it. They appeared and en-
tered strong protests against such ac-
ton, on the ground that it was dis
elimination against Duluth interests,
and gave parties outside of the state
the benefits of the state law, without
being bonded to obey the state laws,
which was establishing
BAD PRECEDENT.
F. H. Peavey was heard, and strongly
reiterated the statements he had made
when he asked for the inspection. He
said that had he known that any OBJ
lection would be raised he would not
have asked for the inspection.
Col. Graves, of Duluth, being present,
was asked his views and made clear,
cool argument, attacking the policy of
issuing such an order, claiming that it
gave parties not running public house
advantages which public oWarehOuSe-
men could not get. The members of
the commission admitted that he had
made fOrcible argument, but at the
same time were somewhat sore over the
angry. mmannerly message which,
they claimed. the Duluth board of trade
had sent them. Col. Graves assured
them that there had been no intention
of roasting the commission, but that it
was sent when they were quite worked
up over the matter. He claimed that
the board was doing at Washburn what
it would not do in Duluth, which fact
would have the effect to make it more
of all object for a man to have his ware
house outside of the limits of the state.
He also claimed that the commission
Disseminated in favor of Minneapolis
as against Duluth, because the wheat
from Duluth was shipped oD vessels
and that from Minneapolis on cars.
The board took the matter under adj
ViSement.

The Methodist Social Union Would
Not Abolish the Time Limit of
Pastoral Service.

Methodist ministers, class leaders and
representative men and women of the
various congregations of that faith in
st. Paul and Minneapolis, comprised an
interested group that assembled in the
parlors of the Merchants yesterday
afternoon on the occasion of the monthly
meeting of the Methodist Social Union.
A general discussion was INDUCED in
regarding the proposition to abolish the
time limit now in force in the Methodist
church, and the majority of the speak
ers were emphatic in denouncing such
procedure as likely to lead to the abro-
CATION of the fundamental principles
upon which the church was founded
itineracy and class meetings. At the
conclusion of the debate, which lasted
until nearly O'Clock, refreshments
were served by the refreshment COM
mittee and an enjoyable evening was
then passed.

The extradition case of John K.
HERES, who is wanted in Canada for
forgery, came up again before Judge
Nelson in the United States court yes
terday on a writ of habeaS corpus. Col.
c. ID. Kerr, his advocate, attacked sew
eral irregularities in the extradition pa
pers, claiming that the application for
his clients eXtraditiOn does not disclose
that it was made officially, that the GER
tificate of the justice to the deposition
was Defective and informal, and it does
not appear that the Canadian govern

that the prisoners identity had not yet

the matter under consideration.
